Suggestions for simple card game (self.boardgames)

I am looking for a simple card game that would be fun for the elderly and at the same time would break the monotony of traditional card games, that they are currently playing. Preferably something internationally popular so it is easy to buy in the EU.

Edit: Thanks everyone. I bought The Crew and noted a lot of other games. Hope it will go well :)

The crew! Both versions of it allow for replayability as you have different objectives every game. It is a trick taking game, so they might be a bit familiar with it due to other games like bridge. And it is cheap. Only thing that might take them a bit to get used to is that it is coop.

Another simple one would be take 6 (nimmt 6).

The crew looks interesting, will check it out. Thank you

I would recommend The Crew: Mission Deep Sea over
The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine, same idea, but with more polish.

The crew is amazing, you could play this with about any card deck as long as you have the missions somewhere.
